Hi Rafael,
Sorry for my late reply. I added a copyright statement and license
(GPL2 or later) to the files I wrote:

octcdf:
       inst/example_netcdf.m, inst/example_opendap.m (no copyright statement)

optiminterp:
       inst/example_optiminterp.m (no copyright statement)

This is fixed thus in octcdf 1.0.10 and and optiminterp 0.3.1.

Thanks and regards
Alex
